Conflict is bad and terrible things will occur if differences in opinion are aired.Conflict will rip apart the team or its esprit de corps..It's better not to engage in conflict; harmony must prevail at all costs.The parties will never get over those negative feelings.The issue will cause a chain reaction that will halt or delay productivity and involve other people.

As leaders we should take actions to minimize the negative aspects of conflict.

We should realize that conflict is natural and happens all the time.

Stress the positive aspects of conflict; just because tension arises, the world is not going to collapse. In fact, if handled well, conflict often leads to innovation.
Realize that conflict can be handled in a positive way that leads to personal and professional growth, development and productivity.
Encourage others to bring up conflict and differences. Allowing them to fester inevitably encourages them to erupt later, usually at a most inopportune time.
Identify the root cause(s) of the conflict. You can't begin to unravel the potential negativity in conflict and look toward progress until you determine the source of the issue.
Look at the issue from all sides. Inspect the positive and negative factors that each party sees to fully comprehend what is at stake.
Devise a complete list of actions to address the issue; ensure that each party believes that he/she has had input in the final product or decision.
Decide on the step that best addresses and resolves the issue. Again, all parties need to see that they have had input into this step.
Agree on whatever next steps are necessary to implement the mutually agreed-upon action.
Review the process that you used to arrive at the final decision, hoping to implement a similar successful plan when negative conflict next arises.

i wish you all the best as you purpose to embrace peace
